I’ve been checking out Hilleberg Kaitum II and III.

Is there an other tent for Swedish weather conditions that can house a 2 m person? Hilleberg is expensive but the only tent I have found that has a square, qubicle, inner tent. And that also is good for spring and fall activities.

The inner tent can’t have a slope or the feet will hit the inner tent that will connect to the outer tent. The result is wet sleeping bag.

I'm Looking for some guidance on a decent to quality percolator. I'm currently using a cheapo enamel percolator that does the job but is not aging well. Does anybody have a percolator that they are absolutely in love with?

The manufacturer's tag has long since faded, but the storage bag gives the composition as follows:

Outer: polyester taffeta Inner: polyester blend Filling: laminated construction, 2×160gm² hollow polyester fibre

So does anyone know whether it would be safe to just put it through a washing machine and drier?

Thanks!!

So my Girlfriend and I will be attending Glastonbury this year but I haven’t a clue about what tent I should get. I’d like a 4 man tent that’s definitely waterproof, I understand that a bit of water might get in if it rains but I can’t be having a full breach kinda thing going on. If anyone could recommend any tents it would be greatly appreciated (price range in around €350) I’m not sure if this is a tall order but any advice will help, thank you so much!

So I usually only do day hikes, and I've been fine with a North Face 28l day pack (weird model only available in Japan I think). However I'm going to be doing a five-six day trek staying at inns along the Kumano Kodo trail. I have a 70l Farpoint travel pack which has been great for its intended purpose, and I could take off the attached day pack and bring it down to 55l if overkill - however I'm wondering if anyone with experience can advise me about whether to use that or to invest in a proper hiking pack at around the 45l mark.

Thanks!
